A Stepwise Questioning Expert-Editor Multi-Agent Framework for Long-Document Summarization

Lingyun Shen, Xuejia Guo

Although large language models (LLMs) have shown promising potential in news summarization tasks, their performance on long-document summarization remains challenging as their length often exceeds the input limits. As the agent investment, which provide possibility to improve the inherent capabilities of LLMs. To enhance the effectiveness of long-document summarization based on LLMs, this paper proposes an expert-editor stepwise questioning multi-agent method, in which the expert and the editor guide another agent to refine the summary by posing questions on different aspects of the content and providing targeted clues for revision. We conducted experiments on two representative long-document scientific datasets and evaluated the results through widely recognized automatic metrics. The results demonstrated the effectiveness of our method.

Norm Enforcement for AI Agents: Robustly Shaping Behavior in Multi-Agent Systems

Yaowen Ye, Jacob Steinhardt

AI agents are increasingly deployed in shared environments where they pursue diverse goals and compete for rewards. This multi-agent competition can lead to behaviors that serve individual gains at collective cost -- for instance, marketing agents may post misleading content as a…

Route, Communicate, and Reason: Gated Routing and Adaptive Depth for Efficient Multi-Agent Reasoning

Sudipto Ghosh, Tanmoy Chakraborty

Multi-agent ensembling multiplies active parameters and inference cost without answering three basic questions: which agents to consult, how deeply a query should traverse a hierarchy of agents, and when inter-agent communication is worth its cost. We present GRADE (Gated Routing…

Existing multi-agent debate frameworks suffer from two critical limitations: they rely on static architectures where agent roles and coordination patterns are fixed at design time, and they require instantiating multiple model copies, incurring substantial computational overhead.…
